Has anyone experienced a smilar problem? Any ideas I could explore?


What i find interesting in this thread is that, so far, no one else
has indicated that they have seen the same problem in their tcl/tk
application. If there were some way to create a small coherent example
that produced similar results (even if the amount of time were
different), perhaps the tcl/tk team would then be able to take the
code in question and debug the situation to analyze whether what a tcl
programmer needed to do to resolve the situation.

At one point in the thread, someone mentioned they had seen or heard
of similar behavior relating to Firefox. At first blush, this seems
like an Operating System related issue.

Hmm - any chance the application could be reengineered to use multiple
processes, which might spread the memory use among a number of
processes, most of which hopefully would have no graphical component,
and thus not have the disturbing user interface impact?

Basically, turn the user interface into a client of data being stored
and managed by other software components...
